Almost a month ago, Ikiwi Obead, freelance reporter for the Galactic News Agency, went missing while working on a new article about money laundering and fraud. Yesterday, her remains were discovered near Farpoint Valley and identified through a DNA scan. How the reporter died, and when is not yet known, but local authorities suspect a violent death. They stated that while the group that found the remains was attacked by Tusken raiders at the site, sand people involvement was just one possible direction the investigation was taking.

Ikiwi Obead was a native of Naboo, and started her career in journalism at an early age, volunteering at a student news service in Theed. After graduating from college she started to work as a freelance journalist for the Galactic News Agency. Her latest work, two interviews with Clarissa Goldear and Thaesus Andromeda, were made in Farpoint Valley, Tatooine. Ikiwi Obead next of kin consist of her two parents and a younger brother.

The Galactic News Agency is considering putting out a bounty, should the investigation come to the conclusion that Ikiwi Obead died because of a crime.
